      Okay but that's the whole thing, it's all socially constructed, including all the "mechanical" shit that underlies class, like the concept of property As we all know, money is just pieces of paper and bits in a computer, and so are titles and leases and laws

      You still haven’t addressed the parasitic nature of class that doesn’t exist for any of these “identity-based” oppressions. There’s no race that requires another race to exist.

      The "white" race absolutely requires non-white races to exist that it can position itself as superior to. This is an inherent part of what "white" as a race is and why different groups have tried so hard to get integrated into the "white" race.

      Can you name the race that, if it stopped existing, the white race would stop existing?

      The "white" race positions itself in opposition (and as superior) to *all other* "races" that come and go. The "white" race hasn't always existed, nor has it always existed in the form it has now. But it needs an "other" to position itself as better than. That's what it *means.*

      Do you think Europeans are the only people to have a historical conception of race? This is incredibly historically inaccurate.

      I think that what we mean by "race" is related to but distinct from some ancient Greek philosopher speculating on "the different orders of man" in the same way that Marx's use of "class" is related to but obviously different from what a book on the English peerage means by it

      I agree we have different ideas of what “race” does and possibly should mean: when I say race I’m referring to any type of ethnic classification system, whether benign, hostile, or even theoretical. My point is that there are a lot of different ways to classify and divide “race”

      But there’s no such ambiguity in regards to labor vs. capital.

      You’re the second person I’ve seen recently make this distinction and I genuinely don’t see the utility, in your scenario an old retired lady with an antique shop that doesn’t turn a profit and has no employees has more social power than a billionaire CEO beholden to shareholders

      Yup I mean it's kind of funny that the go-to term people use as a synonym for "capitalist" is "CEO" CEOs of large companies typically are compensated with a lot of stock in the company, but "CEO" itself is an employee position

          I understand the appeal of class reductionism because it makes things look a lot easier to fix but then you get into the details and it’s just as complicated to unravel as any other systemic injustice. Which is why the only progress comes from a holistic approach.

          eh sort of, most ceos either own a controlling interest or are directly elected by investors, calling it an employee position is kinda misleading.

          same goes for most other c-suite and board positions, if they aren't part of the capitalist class they are directly appointed by the capitalist class.
